Mission and programs · 2024
Mission
The mission of The Rise School of Houston is to provide the highest quality of early education services to children with developmental disabilities and those without disabilities.
Activities or mission (Part I)
The Rise School of Houston provides early childhood intervention services to children ages six months to six years with Down Syndrome and other developmental disabilities as well as children without disabilities.
-
The Rise School provides family-centered services designed to meet the individualized needs of all children and families. The School's goal is to provide a blend of educational and therapy services within the context of a developmentally appropriate curriculum and to prepare children for their next educational environment. The 2024-25 school year was a very successful one for The Rise School of Houston. Our full capacity of 96 students with and without disabilities, ages six months to six years, learned and played together in inclusive classrooms and received therapeutic services in a "push-in" model. See Schedule OOf these students, 54% have a disability and 46% are typically-developing peers. Thanks to the school's vigorous scholarship program (all students receive some discounted tuition, and 75% of students receive additional financial aid), our student body remained diverse: 8% Asian, 23% African-American, 28% Hispanic and 42% White. The School has an affiliation agreement with Texas Children's Hospital to provide a coordinated program to meet the needs of its students. Under the affiliation agreement, Texas Children's Hospital provides utilities, maintenance, housekeeping, security, therapists, and consultation related to the operation of the School without charge.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all. Showing the 10 most recent; the API carries the rest.
Grants made
No itemized grants to organizations. Schedule I is filed only by organizations that granted more than $5,000 to a recipient, so most filers have none.

Other IRS files
Auto-Revocation List
Not listed. The IRS publishes this list for organizations whose exemption was automatically revoked for failing to file for three consecutive years.
Publication 78
Listed as of 13 October 2026, under deductibility PC.
These are two separate IRS files on two separate schedules, shown as published and not reconciled with each other. Neither is a statement about whether a contribution is deductible today: 19,245 organizations appear in Publication 78 while the IRS's own revocation file lists them as currently revoked, more than half of those revoked before 2019. Absence from Publication 78 is evidence of nothing, and presence is not evidence either. Verify current status with the IRS before relying on it.
